About

Hertog Jan Tripel is a high-fermentation tasting beer from the Arcen brewery, showcasing Belgian tripel tradition with substance. At 8.5% ABV, it builds on a robust malt backbone with pronounced banana esters, vanilla and marzipan notes that emerge from the yeast character. The beer pours a clear golden hue and carries a thick, oily mouthfeel supported by firm carbonation. The finish turns spicy and dry, with a lingering bittersweet character that prevents the beer from becoming cloying. This is a beer built for contemplation and food pairing, particularly with hearty meat dishes.
